Snapes' piece was written in the wake of a New York Times report alleging Ryan Adams "offered to jumpstart" the careers of female musicians and then "pursued them sexually."
"In music, male misogynist acts are examined for nuance and defended as traits of 'difficult artists,' Healy quoted, "while women are treated as hysterics who 'don't understand art.'"
